11 HIM’s of God carved some pain gain out of a beautiful crisp morning on our annual mountain men’s retreat at Windy Gap YoungLife Camp near Asheville NC. Here’s how 11 conquered 14 out of 18:
WARMERAMA:
- Mosey a bit to circle up at a better lit area
- Welcome & Disclaimer
- Warm-up Reps IC, slightly extended total reps for a full body warmup
The THANG:
- Mosey down to the start of an epic mountain frisbee golf course
- Outlined the plan: escalator burpees to match the hole number, with a movement exercise to complete each hole, and variable reps (mostly called IC) at the end of each hole
- Movements included runs, Bernies, sprints, broad jumps, lunge walks, low crawls, bear crawls, and others
- After getting up to 9 burpees completing the first 9 holes, we switched to WWII’s at each hole for the back 9
- The reps called were highly variable and too many to list, but the PAX got their money’s worth
- Completed 14th hole and then mosey BTTF
COT:
- Counterama # 11
- Namerama, naming 2 FNG’s
- BOM Prayer
NMS: Back for YHC’s 6th time on the mountain, and this place is absolutely majestic! Such amazing mountain beauty and the company of 300-400 wonderful men celebrating Jesus. YHC has led a lot of bootcamps here over the years but this was the first time tackling a workout based on the frisbee golf course, and it turned out to be an awesome smokefest. Thankful for being here and the other 10 HIM’s who joined for this morning’s victory lap. We’ll have the pleasure of enduring a beatdown delivered by Voltage tomorrow. Yours AYE! ~DTH
